Do you have a sweet spot for bold prints and colors?
Then you may have heard of a little Finnish company called Marimekko. Β This brand popularized colorful prints in large florals and patterns like atypical polka dots (ones with a softer edges). Queue up design fans, because Marimekko for Target will be launching April 17. Β People, like me, are very excited because Marimekko makes such fun prints and colors and the timing is perfect for summer soiree planning.Β This collaboration highlightsΒ classic Marimekko prints designed by one of its most iconic designers, Maija Isola. Β The best Marimekko for Target pieces come from the following prints:
- Kukkatori – floral print inspired by flowers at a marketplace in the summer
- Okariino – makesΒ melodies and rhythms into a moving pattern
- Melooni – represents a deconstructed watermelon
- Albatrossi – inspired by the waves of the Mediterranean Sea
- Appelsiini – Finnish for “orange” after the designer feasted on some Spanish oranges
- Lokki – Finnish for “seagull” reflects waves and an easygoing ocean vibe
The best Marimekko for Target pieces
My picks include:
1. Girl’s clothing – these modern prints are perfect for the warm weather
2. Swim Gear – the bold patterns make it and the circular towels are too cool!
3. Hammocks – the prints make these hammocks stylish and modern
4. Salad plates – I adore the Kukkatori print in black or navy and they are simply chic!
5. Accessories – whether you’re a fashion lover and have to have summer hats or love trays for your tablescape, it’s the extras that make it for this collection
great stuff.

Love that you posted this and it was the children’s clothes that caught my eye too and now that I’m finally living near a Target again I went this morning and it was fun to shop because it wasn’t insanely packed like usual. I got some little girl clothes and the hat. Were you able to get a piece for you or your daughter?? If not, let me know and maybe I can go back in the next couple days. :)) Hope you’re doing well.

Dale, lucky you! I’m happy that you got a few pieces that you liked and how cool is it to live by a Target that isn’t super crowded! I didn’t get any pieces for my daughter yet, but will take a closer look. I’m going to be selective because she got so many clothes for her birthday and I don’t want her closet to be too crazy! Thanks for the offer – how sweet to think of a fellow mama fashionista!
